Stuck Quick Menu Button

[Hurricanedragon]

Hello! I'm new to the forum. I created a button that opens a quick menu when it's clicked, but I want it to disappear when it's clicked and to come back when the quick menu is closed (when return is pressed). The quick menu moves in and out just fine, it's just the menu button that's not doing what I want. Button's still there behind the menu. :/ I've seen another post with a similar issue, but it didn't explain it well enough for me to understand...



I've tried different codes and such, but they all result the same. This is the one I have now.

Code: Select all

# Quick Menu

Hm, that strange, 'cause this code works fine for me. Maybe you should show yours?

Code: Select all

# Declare characters used by this game.
define e = Character('Eileen', color="#c8ffc8")

I did it like you said, but it still doesn't work. I don't know why it's not working, but I think I'm just gonna scrap it. I don't feel like getting any more frustrated than I already am, but thank you for trying to help me out! O v O

Did you show the "mbutton" screen as a separate one (like in my example) or is it part of another screen? You didn't show this in your code sample, so...
